Yamaha Revstar Standard Electric Guitar – Powerful P90 Tones with Custom Craftsmanship
Experience exceptional tone and playability with the Yamaha Revstar Standard, designed to inspire guitarists seeking a versatile and distinctive sound. This electric guitar features chambered maple and mahogany body construction that sculpts rich resonance while reducing weight for comfort during extended play.
Equipped with two custom Yamaha P90-style single-coil pickups, the Revstar Standard delivers a powerful, dynamic voice using high-quality Alnico V magnets. The 5-position selector switch with subtle phase shifts on positions 2 and 4 gives you fresh, vibrant “in-between” tones, expanding your sonic palette beyond classic settings.
The push/pull tone control activates the Focus Switch boost, providing a passive gain similar to overwound pickups. This enhances mids and lows, darkens the highs, and adds an aggressive, textured character to your sound perfect for cutting through the mix.
Durably built for performance, the 3-piece mahogany neck is reinforced with carbon rods to improve vibration transfer and maintain stability. A custom racing tailpiece completes the guitar’s sleek look and ensures solid tuning stability.
